Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

My first session with you will be to view what you need and also what your goals (what you would like to get out of therapy). We will also speak about confidentiality, fees, paperwork and any other questions that you may have just to make sure that everything is out in the open. If you agree that I am a good fit for you, then we can proceed to our next session.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I feel that my greatest strengths as a therapist are as follows: empathy, communication, and listening.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I am best positioned to serve anyone, regardless of age, who is in need of the following: school, career, trauma, anxiety, military, special needs children, and suicidal ideation.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Using CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), I allow patients to reflect on the choices that have been done and what other choices that could have been made. Then from those choices, what the outcome could have been and let the patient decide which outcome would have been better.

Trauma-Focused CBT

Using Trauma Informed Care, understanding the background of the patient to understand why he/she is making the present choices. Once the understanding happens, then the patient can begin to move forward.

Gestalt

The empty chair technique is used in Gestalt therapy to address unresolved issues, conflicts, and emotions.

She seems to listen and understand what I'm saying and how I'm feeling. I love how easy it is to share with her. She makes me feel heard.

I came to Jennifer because I have a lot of trauma in general, and the therapist before weren't really a good fit or my insurance wasn't accepted. So far I find Jennifer informative and understanding, she also listens and I think so far this is only the second session but one important thing for me is I told her I love homework and so since she has given me homework.
